Brushing technique
• Guide the brush head slowly from tooth to tooth.
• Hold the brush head in place for a few seconds before
moving on to the next tooth.
• Brush the gums as well as the teeth, first the outsides, then
the insides, finally the chewing surfaces.
• Do not press too hard or scrub, simply let the brush do all
the work.
Oral-B DENTA-PRIDE has a pressure control feature to help
ensure that the right degree of pressure is applied. This helps
protect your gums from excessive brushing and makes your
toothbrush easy to operate. If too much pressure is applied,
the oscillating movement of the brush head will continue but
the pulsation will stop. In addition to feeling the change, you
can also hear a different sound.
In the first days of using your toothbrush, your gums may
bleed slightly. In general, bleeding should stop after a few
days. Should it persist after 2 weeks, please consult your
dentist or dental hygienist. If you have sensitive teeth and
gums, Oral-B recommends using the «Sensitive» mode.

oral care needs:
«Daily Clean» – Exceptional mouth cleaning.
